I would like to know your source of this UK research. If a patient in a psychiatric ward told you that he has regular visits from his dead aunt Martha or that his Jello flys to the ceiling before he gets a chance to eat it, you wouldn't take him seriously anyways, would you? Therefore, no reports. > I would also bet that no-one in such a grouping has ever reported > being abducted by aliens. Don't be too quick to lose your money. Two years ago we got permission to perform mind over matter tests with such patients at a local Toronto hospital. Although the mind over matter tests turned out negative, some stories these patients told me certainly sounded like UFO abduction experiences. > It must be to do with the mental state of such people and their > view of reality. Maybe the reason we sane people have not figured out the mystery of UFOs is because we refuse to even entertain certain views of reality (eg. aliens = demons) that were accepted as fact by previous generations. > [P.S.
